Abdukodir Khusanov included in City's Champions League squad?

Many sources report that City has included Abdulkodir Khusanov in their Champions League squad, notes football expert Alisher Nikimbaev.

“This is quite possible and expected, considering that each club can register up to three new players in the Champions League, and City signed four newcomers during the winter transfer window — besides Khusanov, there are Viktor Reis, Omar Marmush, and Nico Gonzalez. This means that Abdulkodir's chances of making the squad were initially around 75 percent.”

While publishing news about City's squad, many sources reference the ESPN website.

“How reliable is this information? For instance, the list includes Claudio Echeverri, an 18-year-old Argentine who is essentially the fifth player to join City this winter. His transfer from River Plate was reported a year ago, and he spent this year on loan in Argentina. So according to ESPN, City has registered four newcomers — Khusanov, Reis, Marmush, and Echeverri, but has not registered Gonzalez. Therefore, I personally prefer to wait for the official confirmation of the squads on the UEFA website. However, it states that all changes will be published only after they have been approved for all clubs. In other words — on the night of February 6-7.”
